Eagles change travel plans due to the extreme heat expected in Tampa

It’s supposed to feel hotter than 100 degrees in Tampa Bay on Sunday, so the Eagles are making sure they’re prepared.

The Eagles have not had much success in Tampa Bay during the Nick Sirianni/Jalen Hurts era, and it looks like they’re making some changes in 2025 to avoid some of the same pitfalls.

Temperatures at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday are expected to feel like 103 degrees, which is aggressive and potentially dangerous. Aside from preparations to make sure players bodies are hydrated and ready to go, it sounds like the Eagles are taking additional measures this year. John Clark of NBC Sports Philly reported that they are changing their travel schedule to allow for more time to adapt to the extreme heat.

The Eagles most recently played in Tampa back in late-September 2024, when the Bucs won 33-16, and it was the last straw before the team made considerable changes that ultimately led to a Super Bowl win.

The Bucs are the one team that has really had Sirianni’s number the past few years, so it’s not surprising that the head coach would look at new ways to approach this Week 4 game.
